USAGE: 1.) Include this script after Prototype in the HEAD section of your HTML page <script src="/javascripts/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="/javascripts/limitedtextarea.js" type="text/javascript"></script> 2.) Choose your implementation method A.) Unobtrusive (silent): Add the "rel" attribute to your textarea tag with a value of "limited". This will limit the textarea to default of 300 words. Example: <textarea cols="40" id="comment" name="comment" rel="limited" rows="20"></textarea> Adding "limited[##]" will allow you to override the limit on that textarea. Example: <textarea cols="40" id="comment" name="comment" rel="limited[250]" rows="20"></textarea> B.) Inline: You can also call the Limited TextArea Inline in your HTML. Options include: silent: true | false "true is default. false is required to run inline" id: dom_id of element "pass in the id of the textarea you wish to limit words on." limit: 300 "pass in the limit on the word count for this textarea. Defaults to 300" Example: <textarea cols="40" id="comment" name="comment" rows="20"></textarea> <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> limited = new LimitedTextArea({ silent: false, id: 'comment' }); </script>
